I have been struggling with my sexuality and my self-identity for years. I'm introverted, which makes it harder for me to be confident in my skin. Ankita has been such an amazing therapist and a great listener to vent to about my deepest fears. She understands me so well and uses the best methods to help me overcome my fears. Every session with her leaves me feeling more confident and ready to take on the world.

It's been 4 weeks since I started going for individual therapy sessions with Ankita. My work is hectic every day. But Heart It Out's booking process has proved to be the easiest. And Ankita is super flexible with her timings. I have anger management issues and deal with stress as part of my busy lifestyle. But Ankita has been helping me cope with my stress, and I'm starting to see the real benefits of therapy.

It's the way Ankita communicates so empathetically that gently brought me out of my traumatic prison. I was in an abusive relationship as a teen, and the trauma stayed with me well into my late 30s. I could never trust ANYONE. I was frustrated with myself, but Ankita showed me how it was because of my past. She guided me through my insecurities and pain. She helped transform my perspective, and I'm starting to feel confident again.
